It's closed due to a shooting that occurred on the premises. Don't believe that they ever received a new license.

A true hidden gem on the south side…read more Over the years, I've become a regular here because the pizza is SO DAMN GOOD!!! It's crispy, fresh and delicious. There's something about the sauce I can't even describe and if you like mushrooms, add them to your pizza, they're probably my favorite part. Even the leftovers taste good. What keeps me coming back though is the staff and overall vibe of the place. I love how the bartenders Dawn and Bill always remember my name. I love the wood paneling on the walls. I love being in charge of the jukebox, playing 80's hits and the occasional country song. I enjoy playing pool and actually don't mind that it's in the center of the place. It's cash only. There is an ATM though. If there isn't a game or sports on, they will be playing Ridiculousness, Impractical Jokers, the news or Wheel of Fortune. Everyone will be laughing, shouting out answers at the TV or bitching about corrupt politicians. Go on Monday for half price pizza. Go on Wednesday for free chicken and cheap drafts. Go on Friday for free hot dogs. Go to Frank's if you simply want to get out of the house. Tip your bartenders - they're good people. I've been coming here for years and I'll be returning for years. In fact, I'll be there next week!

My brother discovered Frank's Pizza after one of his coworkers recommended it. Ever since then,…read morehe's become a regular customer because of the good vibes, cheap eats, and drinks. He kept saying that he wanted me to try the pizza because he thought I'd like it. He said it reminded him of Fox's Pizza in Beverly, which is what we grew up on. Honestly, Frank's is somewhere I would've never gone without my brother's prompting. I don't frequent the area and rarely go to dive bars, but I was pleasantly surprised. The bar was quiet, clean, and comfortable. It's no frills for sure, but it's a bare-bones environment in the best way. My brother and a friend of ours were already there when I arrived. They'd already started a tab so, I just went to the bar and ordered. It was early (noon) so I didn't order alcohol. I only ordered Pepsi, but my brother and friend ordered drinks. They liked them and said they only cost $3.50. We ordered a large pepperoni and sausage pizza which arrived fairly quickly. it was piping hot too!! It was so hot that the cheese would just slide off the cracker-thin crust. The pizza was excellent though. My sister thought the cheese was too thick, but, I liked it. I thought it was fantastic. The meats were high quality and the sauce was tasty. Our friend liked it as well. The four of us ate the entire pizza. We visited on a Saturday afternoon, so the bar wasn't packed. There were a handful of regulars at the bar and a couple of people playing the slot machines. There was a baseball game playing on the TV, so it was fairly quiet. During peak hours I'd imagine that it gets pretty packed. The bartender and our server were cool, so I have no complaints about the service. I wouldn't say that Frank's pizza tastes like Fox's in Beverly, but I do understand why my bro made that comparison. They're both good for different reasons. I'd probably visit Frank's again in the future if given the choice.
